What's wrong with this lawyer?!

Why do some enjoy days of peace? Because others are shouldering the burden on their behalf. The disparity was too great. In the beginning, if there was no seafood during meals, they would just dump the food, preferring to go hungry. But after starving for two days, they still ate because his mother, likewise accustomed to living comfortably, had no idea what to do when she went out to work... Ding Yongqiang's condition fluctuated, sometimes sober and helping out with work, other times having to be restrained during his fits. Does their current life seem pitiful? Of course, it's pitiful, but there are very few who sympathize. So Old Tang had offended too many people this time, but he didn't care. If there's a system in place, not making the most of it would be a disservice. After Ding Deshui was shot dead, his wife had been trying hard to keep Ding Yongqiang away from the news online, without a phone, locked at home. But after all, she had to go out to work. So, one day, Ding Yongqiang sneaked out. He was idly wandering around the village when he overheard people talking—his father, Ding Deshui, had been shot dead... It was like another kind of stimulation that made Ding Yongqiang sober up a bit. He hitched a ride to the county town, borrowed a phone, and then found out about everything. His dad died because of Tang Fangjing. ... Time passed quickly, and through Old Tang's tireless efforts, four of the five cases at Lincheng City Intermediate Court were retried and declared not guilty after review! For the remaining one, Old Tang appealed again, and the high court ruled to correct the verdict, confirming the acquittal! In Jingzhou City, where there were many cases, the initial ones likewise resulted in acquittals. By July, after the wrongful convictions were addressed, the Intermediate Court finally made a decision—a vice president personally called Old Tang to apologize. In the end, the Intermediate Court did not accept Ji Xugang's suggestion; there was indeed no need for a public apology, as to whether Tang Fangjing posted the apology online was his affair. And naturally, Old Tang accepted the apology, because he had won. What followed was continuing to work on cases. As soon as a judgment was made in Jingzhou, he would go to the respective place and start criminal proceedings either through reporting to the police or filing a private lawsuit! This was not easy; one could not count how many death threats were received in private messages. However, a gun pointed at his head wouldn't make him cower, let alone an online threat. All his actions were in accordance with procedures, step by step, ensuring that each step was supported by law, so that if anyone asked, he could cite the corresponding legal basis. Of course, if he encountered a situation where the response was "your law, my scoff," he would continue to report it to higher authorities, leaving his mark on the legal departments of Lincheng's various districts and counties. Since they were all under Lincheng, reporting to higher levels all led back to Lincheng, and the leaders there gradually became numb. Too many... Thirty-one miscarriages of justice may not seem like much, but when they all erupt at the same time, it's a bit terrifying. If the problems in Lincheng couldn't be resolved, he would return to Jingzhou. However, there seemed to be preparations in place, so basically, no issues left Handong Province. It also meant that Old Tang did not make it to the Supreme Court, which he had long yearned for... In the midst of such busyness, time quickly advanced to December. Leaving Lincheng City Intermediate Court, Old Tang walked out slowly, with Judge Tao Dongli accompanying him because, as of today, all that Old Tang could do had been done. The guilty had been arrested, the responsible had been disciplined, and of course, countless families' worlds had been turned upside down. Similarly, many families felt lighter with the affirmation of innocence. Judge Tao Dongli's presence was not without meaning; during these months, he had personally witnessed just how much this man before him had done—he was truly fighting with his life on the line! Although there was the assurance from Ding Deshui's gunshot, these months had not been without individuals contemplating extremes, with three car accidents alone. However, the public security organs were certainly not ineffective; they controlled many issues in advance. No one wanted to see Tang Fangjing in trouble, at least not any further trouble in Lincheng. Judge Tao Dongli, who initially disapproved, had slowly transitioned to admiration. When we go online every day, everything seems mockable, but when we see others doing good deeds, even if just for clicks, we still express admiration. And now, Judge Tao Dongli felt that way; although he didn't agree with Tang Fangjing, it didn't stop him from respecting him, probably some kind of aura. "Lawyer Tang, now that things in Lincheng are settled, are you heading back to Jingzhou?" Judge Tao casually asked. Upon hearing this, Old Tang nodded and replied, "Yes, I'm heading back tomorrow. I've already booked my ticket, look, the three o'clock one in the afternoon. It's time to go back; I've been out for too long." After saying goodbye to Judge Tao, Old Tang returned to the hotel. The next day at noon, Old Tang checked out and left, making his way to the Lincheng high-speed train station. Just as he arrived at the square in front of the station ready to enter, he discovered a crowd had formed before him. Front and center was Huang Licheng, laughing and waving with his family around him. Beside him were Liu Lili and her family with Liu Shangjin chuckling, along with others who had been cleared of charges thanks to him, now all present. Some even brought their little grandchildren, with a toddler sitting in a stroller babbling, not understanding what this man before him did, but laughing because grandpa told him to. Thirty-one people, thirty-one families had all arrived, Old Tang was familiar with each of them, having communicated and interacted with them countless times over the past half year or more. Old Tang hadn't expected them to come to see him off, or to say he wasn't even aware of how these people knew the day he was returning to Jingzhou. "What's all this... what is this about?" Old Tang approached and asked the crowd. This group of over a hundred must have arrived in Lincheng ahead of time to wait so promptly. Smiling, Huang Licheng replied, "Lawyer Tang, you've helped us so much, we... we don't know how to repay you. Now that everything is settled, you're heading home, so we wanted to come and see you off." Liu Lili laughed from the side, "Lawyer Tang, I orchestrated this, didn't consult you, just wanted to surprise you." "As for the timing, it was Judge Tao from the Intermediate Court who told me." Old Tang was silent for a moment, then smiled: "Thank you, everyone, thank you." Such is fate—you reap what you sow, life isn't just about darkness; there is also goodness.
